Chapter 724 Another Hat Trick!
"It's an undisputed red card."
"Judging from the slow-motion replay, Vidic was indeed unable to grab Yang Yang and pulled Yang Yang's shorts, causing him to lose his balance and roll over to the ground, and he was the last defensive player. It's normal to get a red card."
"Liverpool got a direct free-kick to the right from the outside of the box."
...
Yang Yang took Gerrard's hand and got up from the ground.
The Liverpool captain looked very excited and patted Yang Yang's shoulder hard, as if excited by Yang Yang's performance.
Reversing Manchester United 2-1 and now sending off Manchester United's core defender Vidic, this will be a painful blow to Manchester United.
And in the first half, through the efforts of Yang Yang and Kuyt, Evra and Ferdinand also got yellow cards, which seemed to put a spell on both Manchester United players.
The current situation is too favorable for Liverpool.
"How? This ball... you come?" Gerald asked tentatively.
This time, the free kick penalty point is very close, and the position is close to the middle, so it is easier to play.
Yang Yang glanced at the door, nodded, and walked over honestly.
...
"Liverpool's free kick."
"Gerrard and Yang Yang are both standing at the penalty spot. Judging from the positions of the two players, Yang Yang is on the right side of the ball and Gerrard is behind the ball. Obviously it should be the possibility that Gerrard will take the penalty. A bigger heart."
"Manchester United put up a wall of three players."
"The referee blows his whistle, look at this time, Liverpool's free kick."
"Yang Yang..."
"The ball is in!!!!"
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"I can't believe it, it's really unbelievable!"
"Yang Yang used his left foot to take a direct free kick to the right. Van der Sar had no reaction to it. It seemed that he also felt very sudden."
"Before the game, we all know that Yang Yang is a very good free kick player, but he used to take free kicks with his right foot, but this time, he chose to take the curved kick with his left foot. And it was a direct approach, and it was very fast and sudden, and Van der Sar didn't respond."
"He scored twice! Yang Yang once again gave a very exciting personal performance in this game!"
"Three to one, Manchester United's situation can be said to be quite bad now. They are not only one player less than their opponents now, but they are also two goals behind the opponent. This is definitely a painful blow for Manchester United."
"And Liverpool's performance tonight also surprised everyone. We have to admit that Benitez's sudden arrangement of Yang Yang to play in the middle before the game is indeed a very smart choice, and Yang Yang has basically implemented it. Benitez's tactical intentions."
"Ferdinand's yellow card and Vidic's red card were all created by Yang Yang. Now, Manchester United's situation is undoubtedly quite bad. It depends on how Ferguson makes adjustments during the half-time break."
...
In Manchester United's penalty area, Cristiano Ronaldo turned his head and glanced at the ball inside the goal line. He sighed in disappointment, his eyes full of helplessness.
He guessed the beginning, but he didn't guess the process, let alone the ending.
In the first 20 minutes or so, the game was dominated by Manchester United. When the penalty kick was scored, everyone felt that Manchester United had basically won Liverpool, and it might even turn into a big victory.
Unexpectedly, Yang Yang then led Liverpool to launch a wave of wild attacks, scoring three goals in a row and creating a red card. For Manchester United, it was like a nightmare.
In more than 20 minutes, the situation was completely reversed!
How will you play in the second half?
Cristiano Ronaldo was in the dark because he couldn't think of a way to reverse Liverpool while still two goals behind.
The only hope is that Ferguson can bring a miracle.
But is it possible?
…………
…………
Liverpool returned to the visiting dressing room with a three-to-one lead.
This feeling of reversing the opponent at the home of the deadly enemy is really cool and enjoyable.
In the locker room, everyone danced with excitement and looked extremely excited.
Yang Yang is undoubtedly the number one contributor to the team's lead. All three goals came from his feet, but he does not have any pride at all at this moment. On the contrary, he feels that he has only further recognized Bennett today. s.
Vidic is the strongest point of Manchester United's defense. In the Champions League knockout three days ago, he was Manchester United's best player. player.
To some extent, Ferdinand is not as stable as Vidic.
But it is such a player, but under the control of Benitez, he has become Manchester United's soft underbelly.
Yang Yang is very clear that his personal performance and play are of course the reasons, but Benitez's tactical arrangements are equally important. The two are complementary and indispensable.
But from this incident, Yang Yang began to realize that he had a better understanding of the techniques and tactics of professional football.
...
Benitez and Yesterdam walked into the dressing room, but they didn't look as happy as the players had expected.
The Spaniard unceremoniously pointed out several mistakes made by the team in the first half, including Ronaldinho's penalty. He believed that the defense between Carragher and Skrtel was problematic, and Reina's The attack was not timely enough.
In addition, Benitez also pointed out the problems of several other players, saying that everyone was speechless.
That's Benitez's style.
Even though the team is now leading the arch-rival Manchester United three-to-one, what he thinks the most is how to do better.
Many people are not used to Benitez's approach. They think that the team should be praised if they do well, and criticized if they do not do well. Similar to tonight's three-to-one lead over arch-rival Manchester United, It should be affirmed and encouraged.
This is indeed a weakness of Benitez, that is, it is too mechanical, even a little harsh, and believes in frustration education.
However, after Benitez pointed out the player's problems, everyone sobered up from the ecstasy and excitement of leading in the first half, and saw that they were not playing so well. At this time, Yesterdam was Take the initiative to speak, give affirmation and encouragement to the team's performance, indicating that the team has one more person than the opponent in the second half, and there will definitely be more opportunities.
"Maybe, we will take a big win from Old Trafford!" Yesterdam laughed expectantly.
These words suddenly made everyone in the locker room become enthusiastic again.
As a mortal enemy, to be able to beat Manchester United at Old Trafford, this is the pursuit of Liverpool throughout the ages.
Feeling that the players' emotions were improving in the locker room, Yang Yang and Gerrard looked at each other and smiled in unison.
That's what Paco Yesterdam does.
He always makes up for Benitez's weaknesses and deficiencies in seemingly inadvertent places.

After changing sides in the second half, Manchester United made a substitution adjustment.
Central defender Evans replaced Tevez, minus an attacking player, and used Evans to strengthen the team's defense.
It is worth mentioning that Ferguson was a bit too big in this game, because he was ranked among the seven substitute players in the squad. Except for goalkeeper Foster, there was only Evans as a defender, and all the others were Attacking player in the midfield.
Benitez also quickly adjusted the team's formation according to Manchester United's substitutions, moving Kuyt to the middle of the frontcourt and letting Yang Yang go to the right wing position.
Obviously, Benitez clearly sees that if he continues to put Yang Yang in the middle, the effect is not great. Because Ferguson has seen through Liverpool's intentions, he will naturally make adjustments to this point.
So, the task of entanglement with Ferdinand and Evans was handed over to Kuyt.
After seeing Benitez's adjustment, Ferguson's performance in the home team's coach box became quite ugly, but what can he say?
Looking at today's European football, who can be as comprehensive as Yang Yang?
With a height of 1.83 meters, his physical fitness and strength are not bad. He is fast, explosive, and has very superb skills at his feet. He can be competent in all positions of the frontcourt attack. The most terrible thing is that he is very proficient in his left and right feet.
It's like the final free kick at the last moment of the first half, he actually made a penalty with his left foot.
If you are not familiar with him, you must think that he is a left-footed general, but who would have thought that this is what he trained hard.
Therefore, in the face of Benitez's adjustment, Ferguson was also speechless, but there was nothing he could do.
...
After the start of the second half, Liverpool took advantage of their numerical advantage and began to attack Manchester United in turn.
In this kind of strong dialogue, one more person than the opponent is a huge advantage.
In the fifty-fifth minute of the game, Xavi Alonso scored the ball to the left, and Gareth Bell quickly dribbled the ball along the left to instigate a counterattack. The speed was very fast, and O'Shea couldn't keep up.
When the Welsh wing rushed to the outer left corner of the penalty area with the ball, he got a glimpse of the situation, and the curve ball from the left corner passed to the middle of the penalty area.
Kuyt and Evans competed. The Dutchman grabbed the spot, but with his back to the goal, he was blocked by Evans and could not turn around, so he could only stop the ball towards the goal. own right.
Yang Yang suddenly appeared on the right side of Manchester United's penalty area, and Evra, who was supposed to be entangled in him, didn't know when he lost it.
After catching up, Yang Yang faced Kuyt's pass, directly pushed a shot, and sent the goal into the goal guarded by Van der Sar again, four to one!
"hat trick!"
"God, this is unbelievable!"
"Another hat-trick! This is Yang Yang's hat-trick in two consecutive games!"
"Three days ago, he just used a hat-trick to lead Liverpool to a 4-0 victory over Real Madrid at Anfield, and now, at Old Trafford, he has another hat-trick to temporarily lead Manchester United 4-1!"
"Falling like a mountain!"
"Manchester United can be said to be in a precarious situation now. Ferguson should come up with a solution as soon as possible, otherwise it may really be a big score!"
